Hmm, how about I add a column with a counter, for ease of reading.  This
can't be expected to be stable, but should help readabily --- for example,
dynamically loaded or unloaded shared libraries can change the number of
markers in the program.  Let me give it a try ... [done].

Doesn't really work nicely, because a column like the What column works
better without a specific alignment, so that it behaves like it had
no fixed width, so it works best last.  I wish gdb's column support was
smart enough to be able to auto wrap columns nicely, à la org-mode, vis:

 | Num | Name         | What     | Other column |
 |-----+--------------+----------+--------------|
 |   1 | foo bar      | foo      | another      |
 |     |              | bar what | broken       |
 |     |              |          | sentence     |
 |-----+--------------+----------+--------------|
 |   2 | the other    | what?    | yummy        |

but, AFAIK, it isn't.

I've spent a while trying to get something that look better,
and here's the current status:

I gave up and added a column for the "ID".  Very large IDs will
misalign the table; it's a compromise.

You're right.  I hadn't actually documented the columns and the
output of that command thoroughly.  Done so now.

Okay, I agree, though I'd prefer to do that as a follow up, where I
change both the break- and tracepoint command's help output at once.
Is that okay with you?  (I'm collecting a list of small generic
FIXME's unrelated to static tracepoints I'll address afterwards).

I've rewritten and extended this part.  Let me know if it looks better now.

Thanks, yes exactly.

Fixed.

Gotcha.  This is a known user manual "bug".  Most (all?) packets
only document E @var{nn} as error return, but that extended format
is also allowed:

remote.c:packet_check_result()
{
...
      /* The stub recognized the packet request.  Check that the
	 operation succeeded.  */
      if (buf[0] == 'E'
	  && isxdigit (buf[1]) && isxdigit (buf[2])
	  && buf[3] == '\0')
	/* "Enn"  - definitly an error.  */
	return PACKET_ERROR;

      /* Always treat "E." as an error.  This will be used for
	 more verbose error messages, such as E.memtypes.  */
      if (buf[0] == 'E' && buf[1] == '.')
	return PACKET_ERROR;

I think we have a local patch in our (CS) tree cleaning up this
particular issue in the manual across all packets.  I'll
dig for it.

Whooops, sorry, I meant to come back to this, then I completely forgot
about it.  Thanks for bringing it up.

That particular heuristic only comes into play for tracepoints set
by address or line number.  (I expect by line number to be used
often by users using frontends.)  For those, I left this order in
place for two reasons: 1st, it catches the case of the user renaming
the markers names in the code, while leaving the code mostly
unchanged.  2nd, the UST library actually allows having more than
one marker with the same ID, although it is discouraged in the
documentation precisely because it confuses tools.  So
if we query the target for the string ID first, we may face
the situation where we won't know which of the markers with
the same name corresponds to the static tracepoint we're trying
to match.  So querying the target is heuristic too.  If the
static tracepoint had been set by marker id, then we don't need to
consider the multi-markers-same-id issue, or renaming issues --- the
user is for sure interested in all markers of that name.  This latter
case is handled elsewhere (breakpoint_re_set).  In other words, we
give priority to the marker id already.  I actually wasn't handling
this case (multiple markers, same name) the best I thought we
can in the previous patch.  This new version improves on that,
and adds more comments explaing why things are
done that way.  Of course, none of this is cast to stone; I
think experience will let us know if we should tweak the
heuristics.

Here's a new version of the patch integrating all of the
above.  Any further comments?

Thanks for all your help so far.

+/* When symbols change, it probably means the sources changed as well,

+   tracepoints with the markers on the target, for static tracepoints

+   been set by marker id are reset by marker id in breakpoint_re_set.
+   The heuristic is:
+
+   1) For a tracepoint set at a specific address, look for a marker at
+   the old PC.  If one is found there, assume to be the same marker.
+   If the name / string id of the marker found is different from the
+   previous known name, assume that means the user renamed the marker
+   in the sources, and output a warning.
+
+   2) For a tracepoint set at a given line number, look for a marker
+   at the new address of the old line number.  If one is found there,
+   assume to be the same marker.  If the name / string id of the
+   marker found is different from the previous known name, assume that
+   means the user renamed the marker in the sources, and output a
+   warning.
+
+   3) If a marker is no longer found at the same address or line, it
+   may mean the marker no longer exists.  But it may also just mean
+   the code changed a bit.  Maybe the user added a few lines of code
+   that made the marker move up or down (in line number terms).  Ask
+   the target for info about the marker with the string id as we knew
+   it.  If found, update line number and address in the matching
+   static tracepoint.  This will get confused if there's more than one
+   marker with the same ID (possible in UST, although unadvised
+   precisely because it confuses tools).  */

+* Static tracepoints
+
+  Static tracepoints are calls in the user program into a tracing
+  library.  One such library is a port of the LTTng kernel tracer to
+  userspace --- UST (LTTng Userspace Tracer, http://lttng.org/ust).
+  When debugging with GDBserver, GDB now supports combining the GDB
+  tracepoint machinery with such libraries.  For example: the user can
+  use GDB to probe a static tracepoint marker (a call from the user
+  program into the tracing library) with the new "strace" command (see
+  "New commands" below).  This creates a "static tracepoint" in the
+  breakpoint list, that can be manipulated with the same feature set
+  as fast and regular tracepoints.  E.g., collect registers, local and
+  global variables, collect trace state variables, and define
+  tracepoint conditions.  In addition, the user can collect extra
+  static tracepoint marker specific data, by collecting the new
+  $_sdata internal variable.  When analying the trace buffer, you can
+  inspect $_sdata like any other variable available to GDB.  For more
+  information, see the "Tracepoints" chapter in GDB user manual.  New
+  remote packets have been defined to support static tracepoints, see
+  the "New remote packets" section below.

+@kindex strace
+The @code{strace} command sets a static tracepoint.  For targets that
+support it, setting a static tracepoint probes a static
+instrumentation point, or marker, found at @var{location}.  It may not
+be possible to set a static tracepoint at the desired location, in
+which case the command will exit with an explanatory message.
+
+@value{GDBN} handles arguments to @code{strace} exactly as for
+@code{trace}, with the addition that the user can also specify
+@code{-m @var{marker}} as @var{location}.  This probes the marker
+identified by the @var{marker} string identifier.  This identifier
+depends on the static tracepoint backend library your program is
+using.  You can find all the marker identifiers in the @samp{ID} field
+of the @code{info static-tracepoint-markers} command output.
+@xref{Listing Static Tracepoint Markers,,Listing Static Tracepoint
+Markers}.  For example, in the following small program using the UST
+tracing engine:
+
+@smallexample
+main ()
+@{
+  trace_mark(ust, bar33, "str %s", "FOOBAZ");
+@}
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+the marker id is composed of joining the first two arguments to the
+@code{trace_mark} call with a slash, which translates to:
+
+@smallexample
+(@value{GDBP}) info static-tracepoint-markers
+Cnt Enb ID         Address            What
+1   n   ust/bar33  0x0000000000400ddc in main at stexample.c:22
+         Data: "str %s"
+[etc...]
+@end smallexample
+
+@noindent
+so you may probe the marker above with:
+
+@smallexample
+(@value{GDBP}) strace -m ust/bar33
+@end smallexample
+
+Static tracepoints accept an extra collect action --- @code{collect
+$_sdata}.  This collects arbitrary user data passed in the probe point
+call to the tracing library.  In the UST example above, you'll see
+that the third argument to @code{trace_mark} is a printf-like format
+string.  The user data is then the result of running that formating
+string against the following arguments.  Note that @code{info
+static-tracepoint-markers} command output lists that format string in
+the @samp{Data:} field.
+
+You can inspect this data when analyzing the trace buffer, by printing
+the $_sdata variable like any other variable available to
+@value{GDBN}.  @xref{Tracepoint Actions,,Tracepoint Action Lists}.
